Anyone with PMR have experience with 4th COVID vax jab?

I, also, believe that my PMR started with my second Pfizer Covid vaccination. That was March of 2021 and I'm choosing not to get anymore mRNA-type vaccinations. I've tried weaning off of the Predisone twice, but had recurring deltoid pain at night, so I am continuing with 1 to 2 mg. daily for now.

At least I'm "with" a Rheumatologist now who said, and I quote "maybe you were just meant to get PMR". The coincidence of vaccine to beginning of pain and vaccine to full flare for 5 months is absolutely not a coincidence. In the process of tapering and fluctuating between 12 and 11.5mg. 12 seems to be my number for another week or so. At 11.5 the upper arm, shoulder and neck start up. 1 or 2 mg. is wonderful. Goals!
